Michael Keefer ... Endgame in Ohio
Edited on Tue Jun-07-05 06:43 PM by dchill
This article is a couple of weeks old (May 18), but it is one of the most thorough accounts of Election 2004 in Blackwell's Ohio. This passage refers to something that I hadn't been aware of, and which I found fascinating in its revelation of Blackwell's audacity in the face of Ohio law...

http://www.vheadline.com/readnews.asp?id=34681

He also did his utmost to block public access to election data, ordering the Boards of Election in all eighty-eight Ohio counties to prevent public inspection of poll books until after certification of the vote, which he delayed until December 6th.<20> On December 10th, his Election Administrator, Pat Wolfe, intervened to prevent analysis of poll-book data by ordering, on Blackwell's authority, a renewed "lock-down" of voting records in Greene County and the entire state. (According to Ohio Revised Code Title XXXV Elections, Sec. 3503.26, such records are to be open to the public; Ohio Revised Code Sec. 3599.42 explicitly declares that any violation of Title XXXV "constitutes a prima facie case of election fraud....")


(Emphasis mine.)

We really need to nail this asshat. He's a criminal and a snake through & through.

If this is a dupe (it should be), sorry.

1. This is a great article, but I think it's much older than that.
Has it been revised? I've had it since January, I think.

2. I think it was first published last November or December.
It has been posted here numerous times over the past six months.

3. Michael Keefer, Welcome to DU!!!
Great post. This is the type of thing I love to see. With Taft at 17% positive, I think these clowns must be frightened about the propect of Democrats running the Attorney General's office. This would be a no-brainer.

NEW LEADERS FOR A NEW DEMOCRATIC PARTY!

Contact the DNC and Give 'em Hell About NOT Acting on Election Fraud
